DRILL, DRILL , DRILL....Is that all we can think of?

With a President with the intelligence capacity , I guess that is all we KNOW!
OIL!!!!

WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!

Does T Boone Pickens have any credibility with any real thinkers?

"But Pickens knows he’s unique. Unless, he says, “Congress adopts clear, predictable policies” — with long-term tax incentives and infrastructure — so thousands of investors can jump into clean power, we’ll never get the scale we need to break our addiction. For a year, Senate Republicans have been blocking such incentives for wind and solar energy. They vote again next week.

If only we had a Congress and president who, instead of chasing crazy schemes like offshore drilling and releasing oil from our strategic reserve, just sat down with Boone and Shai and asked one question: “What laws do we need to enact to foster 1,000 more like you?” Then just do it, and get out of the way.
